Rude ...unapologetic

Got to of course plenty of time to hit a few balls and putt couldn't find anybody in the pro shop to even check me in Pace of play wasn't bad then had a ranger come up and tell us we were a whole and a half behind as soon as we got to the next tee box the group we were following was still on the Green but yet the ranger failed to apologize telling us both were okay when he made a horrible mistake Sunday afternoon golf on a 4-Hour pace is always fine not to have some a****** follow you around the course acting like you're holding people up horrible snobby group

Golden Hills has always been a well kept course and even with all down pour of rain the past couple days, the course was in excellent condition. The staff is always friendly and approachable. Majority of the Midlands golf courses has lost several of their green, all of the greens here was superb and I couldn’t blame my scores on the greens. Keep up the good work and social distancing was still been practice at the front desk.

Had a last minute foursome wanting to play. Called and said if we got there soon they would start us on the back 9. Fantastic service! For end of January, the course is in great shape. Greens rolled fast. Beautiful weather and a fun course to play.
